Disc brakes and disc brakes are actually the same, just called differently. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Drum brakes: Use brake shoes to squeeze the brake drum to generate braking force, mostly used in small trucks and low-end cars. Due to their weak braking force, susceptibility to momentary brake failure after getting wet, and rapid heat dissipation, they are on the verge of being phased out and belong to outdated technology. The current mainstream braking system is disc brakes. 2. Disc brakes: The system is further divided into solid disc brakes and ventilated disc brakes. The principle is the same, both use the pressure generated by the brake oil pump to drive the brake caliper to squeeze the brake disc to generate braking force. The main characteristics are relatively small heat dissipation, sensitive braking, and effective prevention of wheel lock-up when combined with the ABS system, providing strong braking power.

How Many Kilometers Should Dual Platinum Spark Plugs Be Replaced?

Dual platinum spark plugs should be replaced after driving 60,000 kilometers under normal maintenance conditions. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine, so it is recommended to follow the user manual. How to replace spark plugs: Open the hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, and remove the high-voltage wires. Mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. While removing them, check for any external debris like leaves or dust and ensure they are cleaned thoroughly. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten further. Reinstall the removed high-voltage wires in the firing order and secure the cover.

What is the correct method for parking on the highway?

The correct method for parking on the highway is: 1. If a malfunction occurs, promptly pull over to the right and stop in a safe location. After stopping, turn on the hazard warning lights and place a warning triangle in the direction of oncoming traffic. For more serious malfunctions, it is essential to call for emergency repairs immediately; 2. In cases of heavy fog, rain, or snow, parking is not allowed unless absolutely necessary. If visibility is low or driving becomes difficult under such conditions, exit at the nearest station instead of forcing your way through; 3. If there is a traffic jam on the main highway, follow the car in front and park in the driving lane in sequence. After stopping, always turn on the hazard warning lights. If cars behind you also stop in sequence, there is no need to place a warning triangle. However, if no cars stop behind you immediately, be sure to place a warning triangle in the direction of oncoming traffic.
